well the soundqubed subs will be replaced by ct sounds tropo 12s because they match up with the power i can give them and have a fs of 30 hz so should match up better for what their being used for. also call me a dumb ass but im running 2 ohms off the right and left channel of a surround receiver. ive run it like that for years and im not planing on stoping it now

Chick took 3 shots of Jager, and then, pissed in my mouth.. oh.. wait.. naw.. that wasnt weird..

He probably tearin dat ass up every night. Reason for "insomnia" Ain't sleeping cause he's like a horny hamster on coke.

if you guys were curious heres the port. i made some of it external because i didnt feel like buying pvc elbows to make it turn inside.

Going with a straight port slightly outside is better than an internal bend.

And I'm sure it sounds better than what you could buy for what you put into it.

Krakin, are you some sort of mad scientist?

I would have replied earlier, but I was measuring the output of my amp with a yardstick . . .

What you hear is not the air pressure variation in itself

but what has drawn your attention

in the two streams of superimposed air pressure variations at your eardrums

An acoustic event has dimensions of Time, Tone, Loudness and Space

Everyone learns to render the 3-dimensional localization of sound based on the individual shape of their ears,

thus no formula can achieve a definite effect for every listener.

been to busy but the fabric and magnets came for my grills, so i started cuting and gluing. here is a peak of where im at so far.

it needs another coat of paint but i think im going to put a layer of maring grade clear epoxy over what i have so far first to strengthen it and not allow any dents or scuffs in them. then another coat of black over that if it discolors the black.

the fabric is not glued on yet but you get the idea

Those grills look AWESOME, and they're not even wrapped yet. I'd love to do exactly that for the mids in my car.

"Clipping" is the biggest forum boner now. It's like witchcraft... it automatically explains just about everything people don't understand.
